Synopsis
Lone survivor Hokook, saved by Taoist Masters, discovers a supernatural power to combat demonic forces threatening humanity.
In a land where ungodly demons devour the souls of the living, Hokook is left helpless. Demons destroyed those he held dear, and he is the lone survivor, saved by a band of Taoist Masters. How did this evil come to exist? Rumor has it that these hellish events stem from the mysterious Creator, and the Spirit of Hell will soon strike again. As the Masters struggle to assemble their forces, Hokook realizes he has a hidden skill, one that defies the laws of nature and could save humanity. But to use it, Hokook must commune with the otherworldly. (Source: Tapas Media)
